Ember† 0 Report post Posted May 1, 2015 I took a picture I liked and opened it a program like paint, saved it under a different jpg. And it will shrink the size so you can attach your profile pic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ember† 0 Report post Posted May 1, 2015 tried it... did not work............ any more ideas? the next option is to take a photo from something like photobucket and in the profile edit profile picture "import url" past the "direct" link from the photo bucket picture. when done this way it is sizeless.

TheCamoWolf† 0 Report post Posted May 1, 2015 Edit it on paint but don't just change the file. Shrink the image it's self then save it as a jpeg. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheCamoWolf† 0 Report post Posted May 1, 2015 Make sure you shrink the canvas size to other wise it will still be about the same as it was to start with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James SilverWolf† 1 Report post Posted May 4, 2015 I've noticed that MSPaint (if that is what is being used) tends to not "write" jpegs/jpgs very well, personally, which is why I just use it to "hold" and do some basic editing on an image, then I copy whats in paint, open up photoshop (in my case) start a new image, and paste it into there, merge the layers, and then save the image, since photoshop seems to write the things properly. Something like Firealpaca may be able to do the same or some other freeware graphics editors (looking around techsupportalert.com might show some useful programs, but sadly since the redesign and the new focus on "apps" and mobile stuff the place is a bit more user unfriendly and harder to navigate.)
